Reports in Portugal have suggested that William Carvalho has refused to train at Sporting Lisbon over the way the club have dealt with his prospective move to West Ham.

According to newspaper Correio da Manha (via SportWitness), the 25-year-old is not impressed how club president Bruno de Carvalho has handled negotiations with the Hammers ahead of his club-record transfer.

It’s well known in Portugal that Carvalho hasn’t trained with his teammates, yet Sporting have claimed his absence is actually down to an injury.

After missing Tuesday’s Champions League qualifier against Steaua Bucharest due to a shoulder injury, Carvalho is once again looking likely to be on the sidelines tomorrow with a pain in his leg keeping him out of Sporting’s game at Vitoria de Guimaraes.
